]]> Comment on EDITORIAL: Misleaders of Labor Drift Rightward Towards Trump by Dave Robbins https://labortoday.luel.us/en/editorial-misleaders-of-labor-drift-rightward-towards-trump/#comment-124 Wed, 12 Feb 2025 16:30:10 +0000 https://labortoday.luel.us/?p=3277#comment-124 I’m a retired Teamster. I worked 29 years as a Teamster truck driver and another 21 years as a full-time Teamster local officer and business agent. Sean O’Brien and his lackeys on the Teamsters GEB were elected by the rank and file members to fight for the interests of workers and they all took an oath to uphold the Teamsters Constitution. Our IBT Constitution includes extensive language in the Preamble regarding international worker solidarity and recognition that we are part of a global economy. Those unfamiliar with this language might read it and ask if O’Brien is upholding our IBT Constitution. I know, as a Teamster for 50 years, a member of seven different locals in NYC and New England, and a long-time and early member of Teamsters For A Democratic Union (TDU) how hard we fought and sacrificed to win the right to vote for IBT officers. O’Brien has brought us back to the days of Teamster GP Frank Fitzsimmons, who was a golf buddy of Richard Nixon’s. O’Brien is much like Trump. The racist and anti-immigrant policies espoused and carried out by Trump and his allies, is the antithesis of what our Union is supposed to be about.
